Following a path from Chicago to Iowa and eventually Kansas\, the film explores the forced removals that reshaped Native families and histories. Along Lake Michigan and through historical records\, Sharon pieces together a story long absent from public memory. This film was created to present Chicago’s Native history\, honoring the resilience of those who were displaced and illuminating the enduring connection between people\, place\, and memory. Produced by Susan L. Kelsey in partnership with Sharon Hoogstraten. Native American music by Mark Jourdan (Ho-Chunk)\, Elexa Dawson (Citizen Potawatomi)\, and William Allison Buchholtz (Algonquin).\n \nThe screening will be followed by a Q&A with Sharon Hoogstraten and filmmaker Susan L. Kelsey.\n \nJoin us at Block Cinema on Saturday\, March 14\, at 1:00 PM.
